When it rains, the garage fills up

Nice finds Greg !
Love the Hotpoint it looks brand new after your clean up !
What a pretty wash ...
The rim flows where not the best in keeping lint in.
But sure does make a nice water action and you can see it agitate
without the hat.
Are you keeping the Hotpoint ?
Thanks for the videos this will be the video of the week for me.
Peace.

Hey Greg, great vids!

If you get a chance, will you see what the PP cycle does, the Cooldown being clearly marked. I ask because in the last few weeks, our Martin established that the GE's did not do the classic cooldown and I was wondering if the "Hotpernt" did.

 

Also, does it do the screen flush/ spray rinse?

 

Beautiful load--loved the yellow flash by. Ain't nothin' quite like the action of a short stroke ramp.

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

Cooling Off Period

On the PP cycle the Hotpoint begins adding cold water as the tub is emptying and spinning slowly.  In cases where the machine had two speeds the spin was slower.  This is not really a true cool down.

I am really impressed by the turn-over.  I haven't seen a GE machine run in a long time.  Seem's fairly quiet too!

Kelly is right, when the tub is nearly empty the spray comes on and stays on until the spinning stops and it continues to fill for the rinse. It isn't a "cool down" in the true sense as we know it, especially since most of the water spray is directed from the 11 o'clock position toward the front of the tub (lint ring cleaning) and almost no water gets to the clothes. Spatters here and there mostly. I fixed that though, snipped out the end of the water flume and it now hits the rubber splash guard and mostly goes into the tub.
